Normal gentle care keeps it vivid for seasons.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q\">Can I machine wash?<\/div>\n<p>Yes, cold and gentle, turned inside out.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q\">How should I wash a sublimated jersey?<\/div>\n<p>Turn it inside out and machine wash cold (30\u00b0C or below) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Cold water protects both the fibres and the fit.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q\">Can I use bleach or fabric softener?<\/div>\n<p>No. Bleach damages the fabric and softener leaves a coating that traps odour and reduces moisture-wicking. Plain detergent is all you need.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q\">How do I dry a jersey without damaging it?<\/div>\n<p>Air dry in the shade. Skip the tumble dryer and direct sun, as high heat can shrink the knit and stress the seams over time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"q\">Do I need to iron it?<\/div>\n<p>Usually not; hang it while slightly damp and it drops smooth. If you must iron, use a low setting and never iron directly over the print, turn it inside out first.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"rel\">Related: <a href=\"\/in\/guides-sublimation-printing\/\">What is sublimation<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"\/in\/how-it-works\/\">How it works<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Care guide How to wash sublimated jerseys so they last Sublimated kits are low-maintenance, but a few simple habits keep them looking new season after season.
